Hmm, I'd try one of the following, both using a PC with the F40
connected:

1. make a copy of the config file (.rockbox/config ?) for reasons of
paranoia, open the original file, find/set/modify "foreground color" to
ffffff and "background color" to 000000

2. remove the config file completely

Obviously (1) would be preferable as it doesn't nuke all your other
settings.

I don't have my player to hand to give precise instructions for (1) ..
it's being charged for a long day out, but I'm sure the general idea is
sound.

We never decided to postpone this issue.
We just agreed that we would deal with other issues first.
